Brain wave training has been found to yield excellent results in facilitation of human memory, attention span, and relaxation (Hutchinson, 1994). Furthermore, this research has been demonstrating brain-wave training as an effective intervention in impaired levels of functioning due to ADHD, learning disabilities, physical brain trauma, & psychological trauma (Ochs, 1993).

Entrainment is the process of synchronization, where vibrations of one object will cause the vibrations of another object to oscillate at the same rate. External rhythms can have a direct effect on the psychology and physiology of the listener. Source: www.peyote.com/jonstef/brain.htm

“They (mind devices) are being used by scientists, educators, physicians and psychologists for everything from accelerated learning & athletic peak performance training to remediation of chronic medical and psychological problems. And all of these applications are based on the simple premise of making the brain more mentally fit – promoting awareness and control of the basic cycle of cortical relaxation and activation and the flexibility to move within the cycle at will.

Audio Visual Stimulation

Audio Visual Stimulation (AVS) Technology plays a large role in the cognitive revolution that is sweeping through the 21st century. Although the use of sound and or light for healing, relaxation and achieving altered states of consciousness (ASC) has been used for centuries, it’s only recently that the scientific community has reawakened to its phenomenal potential.

AVS Technology is related to EEG Neurofeedback and Biofeedback technology. While EEG Neurofeedback is more of a precise system of brainwave stimulation (BWS) reading and delivery, AVS provides a more general application of BWS. EEG Neurofeedback is also much more complicated of a system to work with and as a result it requires specialized, extensive training for usage. Not to mention EEG Neurofeedback is also a much more expensive system to work with. The good news is that you can achieve similar results, though more general with an AVS system and if you decide to go into the field of EEG Neurofeedback, you will have learned much of the information through your study and experience with AVS technology.

There is a difference between biofeedback and AVS. Biofeedback is used to condition the nervous system, while AVS stimulates specific patterns of activity in the brain. With biofeedback you become aware of processes normally unavailable to conscious inspection. The awareness includes understanding how it feels to increase or decrease the selected process (a state of relaxation or arousal). In the end, both will get you to the same destination but the journey differs.

Benefits of Using AVS

Although results vary with the individual, the results on a whole have been favorable. Some of the benefits of sound and light brain entrainment reported are:
- Increases in I.Q. especially in children with ADD
- Improved memory and attention span
- Reduction of stress
- Better results in meditation (deeper trance achieved)
- Pain management and relief
- Addiction relief
- Replace lost sleep, reduce fatigue
- Higher scores on tests
- Improved cognitive ability
- Accelerated learning
- Easier access to hypnotic state

The more control you can acquire over your brain states, the more emotional and mental control you acquire over your life.

Brainwave Frequencies overview

A brainwave is an electrochemical rhythm which occurs across the surface of the brain known as the cerebral cortex. This rhythm measures cortical arousal which reflects a corresponding state of mind.

A brainwave is measured on the surface of the scalp where all the bioelectrical activity occurs. The cerebral cortex makes up 80% of the brain’s mass.

This biochemical electricity is produced in the brain through frequencies measured in hertz. “Hertz” is measured as beats per second.

We categorize groups of these frequencies according to the range that is associated with various states of mind.

These frequencies correspond to normally four measurable groups of frequencies – Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta. Note: High Beta (24 – 70 Hz) is referred to as “Gamma”. Low Beta (12 – 15 Hz) is referred to as “SMR”.

Even though all four frequencies are found in the brain at all times, there will always be one or two dominant frequencies. Through entrainment, our goal is to make the desired frequency a dominant frequency at the desired time.

When creating a program, it’s best to use the range of frequencies in the target area instead of producing segments focusing on one frequency because A) habituation easily occurs when you only use one frequency, thus making the treatment less effective, and B) not every person responds the same way to a frequency. For example, while 10 Hz may produce the desired result in one person, 11 Hz will produce the same in another person.

Relaxation, meditation, learning peak performance, stress reduction and deeper sleep; these are just a few reasons why so many individuals worldwide are discovering the benefits of Audio Visual Stimulation (AVS) devices or light and sound machines. Also known as “Mind machines” these devices can gently guide your mind into desired states, such as helping you relax, sleep better, reach meditative states more quickly… and more.

Whether you are a long time follower of neurotechnology or are just discovering its powerful possibilities, we have something for you here. Light/Sound synthesizer Photosonix machines have made it easier for many to reach that elusive few minutes of calm.

Well, every state of mind has a unique electrical signature that can be detected in the brain. These signatures are known as “brainwaves.”

Brainwaves can be measured and recorded using specialized equipment – such as an EEG machine.

That allows us to map what brainwaves are present during certain key states of mind. For example, we know the exact brainwave patterns that exist when we’re relaxed… or focused… or sleeping.

By using a process known as “brainwave entrainment” – which involves playing specially-created audio sounds into each ear – we can actually influence these brainwaves.

That means we can help bring about key states of mind at will – just by listening to those special “brainwave entrainment” recordings. (More about the science later.)

That’s what the Brain Evolution System does.

It uses specialised recordings to help take your brainwaves into a state of TOTAL PEAK PERFORMANCE – literally on-demand!

Now, you might have heard that listening to certain pieces of Mozart music can increase your IQ.

That’s because those pieces – almost accidentally – induce certain brainwave patterns, which help increase thinking speed and intelligence.

The Brain Evolution System was designed SPECIFICALLY with the purpose of taking your brainwaves to a state of TOTAL PEAK PERFORMANCE – exactly when you want it.

All backed by the very latest in scientific research.

Doesn’t that sound like something you’d be INTERESTED in?

Research

1. Researchers at University of Maryland School of Medicine report that meditation relieved stress, reduced rheumatoid arthritis symptoms, reduced cardiovascular risk factors, decreased psychological distress, improved sleep patterns.

2. In a 1999 study, Thomas Budzynski, Ph.D worked with 8 struggling college students. After undergoing audio-visual brainwave stimulation, the students outperformed a control group and significantly increased their GPA.The GPA for the 8 students continued to rise even after treatment was discontinued!

3. Psychologist Michael Joyce used brainwave entrainment with a group of 30 children. After a short period of treatment, he observed improvements in reading and a half year advancement in grade level. The children also showed substantial improvements in attention, reaction and a reduction in impulsivity and variability.

4. The Mayo Clinic Health Letter says that meditation reduces high blood pressure, anxiety, substance abuse, post-traumatic stress syndrome, and visits to health care providers.

5. Quantum Physics states that our consciousness determines the characteristics of the physical matter we interact with. In other words, we attract what we are conscious of and we experience what we are conscious of.

6. Japanese scientist Dr. Masaru Emoto, photographed freezing water at microscopic levels after exposing them to different emotions written on paper. His photographs show us that water responds to conscious intentions by producing beautiful crystal snowflakes when exposed to loving and caring thoughts, and turns into ugly, “dirty” masses when exposed to negative thoughts. (remember your body is made up of 65%-75% water!)

7. Frank Treiber, Ph.D., of the Medical College of Georgia, states that meditation lowers blood pressure, which creates a 12.5% lower risk of stroke or heart related mortality in adulthood… even for healthy young people!
